Tens Or Better (4/5), Chavi Artist (11/4), Jeremys Dream (5/1), Castlebellingham (8/1), Big Tree (16/1), Farranreigh (33/1), Fou Diligence (50/1), Dubaimolly (100/1)

Verdict

Presenting gelding CHAVI ARTIST holds an entry in the Grade 1 Albert Bartlett Novices' hurdle and can confidently approach the race on the back of a big run here following a number of solid efforts at Gowran Park and Naas since the turn of the year. Tens Or Better, winner of a Punchestown bumper in December looks to be an improving sort and along with Gordon Elliott's Jeremys Dream can hit the frame in the opener.
